| Parameter | ||
|---|---|---|
| Supply voltage | - | Input 3-32V (optimal from about 5V), output adjustable 5-35V; boost efficiency quoted near 94 percent at moderate loads, less when hot. |
| Memory & Peripherals | - | The housekeeping quirks of these boards: the potentiometer ships at maximum (many counterclockwise turns before the voltage moves - not a dud), and the tiny trimmer is easy to kill with a screwdriver. |
| Case | TO-263-5 / modules | Module boards |
| Compatibility Level | - | Functional Equivalent |
| Component Category | DC-DC Switching Regulators (Boost) | - |
| Core & Architecture | - | The module as sold: 4A is the peak switch current, and the honest continuous output sits around 1.5-2A without added heatsinking - the number every vendor table buries, and the reason boards "fail at 3A". |
| Firmware Notes | - | Two sentences of module discipline: heatsink above about 1.5A continuous, and do not drive motors with high stall current from any of these boost boards - current-mode behavior and inrush exceed what the switch budget allows. |
| Hardware Notes | - | Common-ground input/output; non-isolated. |
| Lead Time Advantage | - | Shenzhen Spot Stock (24-48h Dispatch) |
| Market Reality | The XL6009 is the boost converter of the modern module economy: the adjustable step-up behind the small blue boards that take a 3-32V input and deliver 5-35V, with a 400kHz MOSFET switch that let the modules shrink against everything the 52kHz ancestor, the LM2577, required. The chip-level history is honest about itself - the two generations are not pin-compatible (the XL6009 adds an enable pin, among other arrangement changes) - while at MODULE level the XL6009 simply replaced the LM2577 board everywhere, the same way the buck modules standardized. The label discipline on these boards is the buying content: 4A is the switch current limit, the practical continuous output is roughly half that without added heatsinking, and the potentiometer ships at maximum. | - |
